Fixed an issue that caused the return of US W-2 forms mailed to employees with foreign mailing addresses. The standard for mailing all documents to employees at foreign addresses is to send them in courier packages, regardless of the employee’s status or any other Dayforce system setting for the employee, such as their organizational unit or pay group.

Dayforce now ensures that all US annual forms for employees with non-US addresses that are to be mailed will use the correct courier packaging, regardless of any employee-specific setting or status. This change aligns with the standard for mailing or delivery packaging for all documents to international addresses.

Fixed an issue when a legal entity changed their name, which caused incorrect Grand Total amounts to show on the Employer Copy of the W-2C report. The Grand Total amount didn’t include the employee’s W-2C Box 1 total when there was a legal entity name change.

Dayforce now correctly includes all W-2C Box 1 totals in the Grand Total amount shown on the Employer Copy of the W-2C report.

Fixed an issue that occurred when an employer selects the Electronic Year-End Form Delivery for Terminated Employees (US Only) field in the Payroll section of the Properties tab in System Admin > Client Properties. Upon employee termination, the W-2 form delivery method reverted to paper. 

Fixed an issue that could occur in Payroll > Pay Run Management where positive amounts with rate changes were not tracked correctly when a pay run also included negative retro amounts. This could result in incorrect total amounts.
